Patent EP-3098833-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KOOIJMAN CORNELIS
IPC: H01J61/28
Filed: 2015-05-28
Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for a scanning microscope to rapidly form a partial digital image of an area. The method includes performing an initial scan for the area and using initial scan to identify regions representing features of interest in the area. Then, the method performs additional adaptive scans of the regions representing structures of interest. Such scans adapt the path of the scanning beam to follow the edges of a feature of interest by performing localized scan patterns that intersect the feature edge, and directing the localized scan patterns to follow the feature edge.

Abstract: A method of processing certain offset-carrier modulated ranging signals which are synchronously broadcast with another signal having a nearby centre frequency. The method comprises receiving a first radionavigation signal from at least one of a plurality of transmitters and deriving therefrom a first OCM signal S A , and generating a combined correlation value Y C , the combined correlation value Y C  corresponding to the correlation of a combined signal S C  with a replica of the first OCM signal, the combined signal S C  resulting from the coherent combination of first OCM signal S A  with a second signal S B  having the same or nearby centre frequency to the first OCM signal S A . The method further comprises deriving ranging information based on the combined correlation value Y C . The second signal S B  may comprise one of (i) an OCM signal and (ii) a BOC signal. The combination of the two signal components may be done before or after the correlation operation. When adopted by a ranging receiver, the technique offers improved performance in the area of: signal acquisition and reacquisition, in particular reducing the likelihood of side-peak acquisition; fine-acquisition and tracking: reducing or eliminating the likelihood of false code-lock.

Abstract: A technique for spectral imaging using a two-dimensional illumination pattern having spectral dispersion in one axis. The spectral imaging method involves the use of spectrally dispersed illumination, thereby allowing the use of higher intensity source illumination than prior art spectral encoding methods, thus providing high-speed, high-resolution acquisition of spectral data from specimens that cannot tolerate high illumination intensities or that require fast imaging for avoiding motion artifacts. The technique is demonstrated by capturing spectral data cubes of a finger using short exposure durations and a high signal-to-noise ratio.

Abstract: The inventors propose a drive system for a landing gear having a wheel (16) rotatable about a wheel axis, the drive system including a drive assembly comprising an input gear (128) rotatable about an input axis by an input shaft (124), and an engagement assembly (130) comprising a first intermediate gear (132) meshed with the input gear (128) and rotatable about a first intermediate axis by a first intermediate shaft (133), and a first drive pinion (136) mounted on the first intermediate shaft (133) and arranged to rotate in tandem with the first intermediate gear (132), the engagement assembly (130) being pivotable about the input shaft (124) relative to the drive assembly. A locking device (160) is engageable to prevent rotation of the first intermediate gear about the first intermediate axis. The system also comprises a driven gear (110) configured to be attached to the wheel (16) so as to be capable of rotating the wheel about the wheel axis. The drive system is arranged to move from a neutral configuration, in which the first drive pinion (136) is not meshed with the driven gear (110) and the locking device (160) is engaged, to a first driven configuration, in which the first drive pinion (136) is meshed with the driven gear (110) and the locking device (160) is disengaged, upon pivoting of the engagement assembly (130) about the input shaft (124) in a first direction in response to application of a torque to the input shaft in the first direction. One of the first drive pinion (136) and the driven gear (110) comprises a sprocket and the other of the first drive pinion and the driven gear comprises a series of rollers (36) arranged to form a ring, each roller being rotatable about a roller axis at a fixed distance from an axis of rotation of the drive pinion (136) or driven gear (110), respectively. In this way, the drive system can be moved from a neutral configuration, in which there is no connection between the drive system and the landing gear wheel so that the wheel can rotate freely (e.g. during take-off or landing), to a driven configuration, in which the drive system can rotate the wheel (e.g. during ground taxiing operations), simply by applying a torque to the input gear (128), via the input shaft (124).
